Plants naturally store carbon, a crucial function for global climate regulation. Geneticist Joanne Chory and her Salk colleagues are developing plants to store more carbon, deeper underground, for centuries. This ambitious initiative, part of TED's Audacious Project, aims to significantly slow climate change.

The TED Talks channel features leading thinkers and doers sharing insights on technology, entertainment, design, science, business, and global issues in 18 minutes or less.

Skyelark Ranch, owned and operated by UC Davis graduate Alexis Robertson and her husband Gillies, utilizes rotational sheep grazing. This practice significantly benefits plant growth, drought resistance, and the climate.

The grazing encourages plant growth, which captures atmospheric carbon dioxide through photosynthesis. This carbon is then stored in the soil, promoting healthier ecosystems and reducing atmospheric CO2 levels.

A new NASA study reveals significant global declines in microscopic ocean plant-life, or phytoplankton, which form the base of the marine food chain. This research is the first to analyze long-term phytoplankton community trends using NASA satellite data.

Diatoms, the largest type of phytoplankton, decreased over 1% annually from 1998 to 2012, particularly in the North Pacific, North Indian, and Equatorial Indian oceans. This reduction could impact the amount of atmospheric carbon dioxide absorbed and stored in the deep ocean. Dr. Cecile Rousseaux is featured.

Facing climate change, a global disaster, experts Arielle Crawford, Gene Baur, Jodi Monelle, and Liz Dee convened to inspire sustainable solutions. Moderated by Deepika Phakke, they shared insights on combating this urgent threat through everyday actions.

Arielle Crawford, founder of ARIELLE, champions sustainable apparel with regenerative materials. Gene Baur, hailed as the "conscience of the food movement," campaigns against factory farming and influenced animal welfare laws. Jodi Monelle's LIVEKINDLY empowers plant-based living for positive global change. Liz Dee, Co-President of Smarties and CEO of Baleine & Bjorn Capital, invests in solutions to outdated animal products and founded Vegan Ladyboss.

Suzanne Simard, Professor of Forest Ecology at the University of British Columbia and author of the bestselling "Finding the Mother Tree," is a world-renowned pioneer in plant communication and intelligence. Her groundbreaking research reveals the complex ways trees interact and communicate through below-ground fungal networks, which are crucial for forests’ resiliency, adaptability, and recovery.

Simard’s work has far-reaching implications for managing and healing forests from human impacts, including climate change. She discusses the dire global consequences of logging old-growth rainforests and advocates for nature-based solutions that combine Western science and Indigenous knowledge to preserve and care for these invaluable ecosystems for future generations.

In 2026, the International Treaty on Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture made its first deposit into the Arctic World Archive (AWA). This collection included the Treaty’s official texts in 14 languages, alongside stories from farmers and researchers worldwide.

The International Treaty enables countries to conserve, share, and use vital crop diversity, supporting global food security.

Intensifying pest pressures, exacerbated by climate change and resistance to conventional controls, were the focus of a recent E-dialogue. It explored how host plant resistance, precision breeding, and integrated genetic and digital solutions can deliver scalable impact, accelerate farmer adoption, supported by effective policy frameworks.

The dialogue featured a keynote by Professor Sophien Kamoun and an expert panel from academia and technology. For more, visit the Agrifood Sustainability and Innovation E-dialogue series.
